Discussion of the Week// New Month

Hello Dear Readers! Paris is so ready for the Summer Olympics ☀️. As you can see the Eiffel Tower is already showing colors of the Olympic Games. This is a picture ๐Ÿ“ธ taken in Paris recently. Paris by night is the best time. Last month I was sharing my memories of the Olympics that marked the most and I said Barcelona 92 was my best memories. I also talked about the French athlete of that time who was the best, Marie Josรฉ Perec๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท. Now guess who is going to run and put the fire ๐Ÿ”ฅ the Olympics for the opening ceremony? I read that it is going to be Marie Jo! ( The way We like to call her) yes! I didn't even know that she would be the choice. I was just talking about her months ago in memories of her performances back in the 90's. Marie Jose Perec was the queen of track and field at the time and she represented a lot for people of color like me. You go Marie Jo๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜‰!! We love ❤️ you!! I put it here again.
I really miss those days. We were so excited to watch the Olympics! The excitment is not the same anymore today. The world is changing. I keep those good memories . The other good news! my country will have young ๐ŸŠ‍♀️ swimmers!! We often do not have Black swimmers and especially African ones. The only African swimmers we had in the women side as far as I remember were a South African girl her name was Nathalie du Toit, also there was Charlene of Monaco ( yes, you have it right. The current Princess of Monaco) She was a swimmer beofre she married Prince Albert and the other one was from ๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ผZimbabwe her name is Kirsty Coventry. She was really good! She made Africa ๐Ÿ‘proud! Kirsty was among the best at the time. All of them were White Africans. But I remember watching them swimming at the Olympics for their countries. I often saw Nathalie du Toit on TV when I was in South Africa ๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ.Maybe there will be new ones this year but that's the ones I remember watching them on TV for the Olympics. So my country Gabon will have a girl and a boy for swimming ๐ŸŠ‍♂️ this year and I am very proud of them already. I hope there will be more Africans in this discipline too. Of course we will be at other disciplines like martial ๐Ÿฅ‹ arts. track and fields etc. My hope is to see more Africans in disciplines other than track and fields. We can do more. Why limiting ourselves? These are my discussions of the week below. You know I talk about everything so... Love is Not Enough for a happy relationship. We need more! These are my thoughts. It is going to be long so take a cup of tea and listen. You do not have to agree with me with everything. Watch Only when you have time. Video 1
